SECRETARY RAFFENSPERGER LAUNCHES COBB COUNTY AND STATEWIDE SIGNATURE MATCH AUDITS

(ATLANTA)-Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger announced a signature match audit in Cobb County and an additional statewide signature match audit. The Secretary of State’s Office will partner with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to conduct the Cobb County audit and with an accredited university for the statewide audit.

“Election integrity has been a top priority since day one of my administration,” said Secretary Raffensperger. “Though the outcome of the race in Georgia will not change, conducting this audit follows in the footsteps of the audit-triggered hand recount we conducted in November to provide further confidence in the accuracy, security, and reliability of the vote in Georgia. I look forward to working with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, Cobb County, and any other future partners to secure the vote in the Peach State.”

Secretary Raffensperger first announced that following specific allegations that election workers in Cobb County had not adequately conducted signature matching on absentee ballot applications ahead of the June primary elections, the Office of the Secretary of State would partner with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to conduct an audit of the signature match in Cobb County. The audit will consist of reviewing a statistically significant subset of the signed absentee ballot envelopes and comparing those signatures to the ones on file in Georgia’s voter registration system.

“Conducting this audit does not in any way suggest that Cobb County was not properly following election procedures or properly conducting signature matching,” said Chris Harvey, Director of Elections for the Secretary of State’s office, who was formerly the Chief Investigator for the office. “We chose Cobb County for this audit because they are well known to have one the best election offices in the state, and starting in Cobb will help as we embark on a statewide signature audit. Just like Cobb County volunteered to be a pilot county for our new voting system, we thank everyone at the Cobb County elections office for their cooperation with this process especially while voting is underway for the runoff.”

The audit of Cobb County’s signature match system is expected to take two weeks. However, it will not change the outcome of the November election.

Raffensperger also announced a planned statewide signature match audit. The Office of the Secretary of State will partner with an accredited university to conduct a third-party signature match statewide audit study.

Observers will be twenty to thrity feet away.
Again.@@@@@@@@@@@@

I thought the Covid Standard was if you can’t remain at least SIX FEET away THEN YOU MUST WEAR A MASK! Please make your voice heard by coming out by the thousands to witness this action! Politicians only yield to We The People! And then only if Civil Disobedience is Up Close and Personal.

WWG1WGA!

Does anyone know if those verifying signatures can also see how that ballot was voted?

Requires force and a no bullshit attitude. The police should have no say whatsoever on how far or how close the observers are to be to the ballots.

The fact he cherry-picked Cobb county concerns me. I don’t trust any of these people to do what is right. If they’re finally appearing to want to do something good, it’s likely a thoroughly manipulated scam.

It should have been done in Fulton County.

agreed, at this point, anything this man can do will only convince us that he’s just covering his ass.

I’m with you on this one! If “we” win both of those runoffs in GA, the only thing we’ve accomplished is keeping the Murder Turtle in power—————— and we all know how much that faithless POS is worth.

The Secretary of State will not allow Republican watchers.

So once again the Georgia Secretary of State is trying to hide the illegal steal and fool the public.

Here is President Trump’s Tweet about it.

“The Secretary of State and Governor of Georgia, both so-called “Republicans”, aren’t allowing Fulton County to go through the vital Voter Signature Verification process. Also, they are not allowing Republican “watchers” to be present and verify!@BrianKempGA”

He did not cave...

It’s another fraud audit built on fraud and to deceive the public.

The Georgia Secretary of State will not allow Republican “Watchers” to be present and verify.

Nope Republicans cannot even be to present to verify. This is per President Trump.

Signatures are on the envelopes which have been removed from the ballots. There is no way to know which votes to throw out. I think the only thing this could show is that there was massive voter fraud going on.

Because he was afraid of going to jail down the road.

Now they are going to have it, but no Republican watchers.

This is a misreading of Foster v. Love.

The ruling held that Louisiana’s October primary was not legal, as the law requires all candidates to be elected on the federal election day. It really had nothing to do with ballots.

This is how they hide the steal.
